Everyday before I head to work or on my way to work I say this little prayer....and I thought I would share it with you.
Dear Lord,
I thank you for everything. You are so good.
Today I pray for:
My mom, dad and family
"S", dad and family
I pray for my brothers and "S"'s brother who are divorced or are divorcing and their families..especially their children.
I pray for all of those who are suffering...especially those who are suffering with the cross of IF.
I pray for the end of abor.tion and more openness to adopt.ion.
I pray for those who are sick.
I pray for those souls in purga.tory and I pray for those who are dying and not yet ready to meet you Lord (and their families).
I pray for the children I will work with today...please give me lots of patience (and I mean LOTS), kind words, thoughts and actions.
I pray "S" has a good day and I pray that I remember to call upon YOU today if I should face troubles and disappointments.
Thank you again ,Lord, for everything.
Amen......
Our Father......
Hail Mary.....
I love you Lord.
Amen.
I've actually been saying this prayer for quite awhile now....maybe four or five years. It's a great way to start my day...and it's personal. I do feel the Lord hears this prayer. I pray it at Adoration, before Mass....and other times if my mornings are crazy and I just forget (which is rare).
My teaching job has been an experience. I'm definitely going to tell the principal I need a younger grade...the drama is too much. I love my certification and what is entails. I have a kid in the class who is all nicey, nicey to my face but I'm privy to what he does behind my back (he has no clue I'm on to him). He's starting trouble...not sure why though...but he watches me like a hawk..and IF I slip up...I'm human...he's telling everyone in class which causes quite a stir. He whispers and all...I am going to talk to him. I don't know why he's expecting perfection from me...I doubt the other teacher before me was perfect. I don't care if he likes me or not...but I do care that he's trying to sway the other students who seem to like school and are working with me. hmmmm......it's funny but he brings up the fact that is dad is a law.yer all the time...like that is suppose to scare me? My dh thinks I should tell his dad this. hmmmm....
Anyways...have a good week and God bless you all.
What a beautiful prayer.
ReplyDeleteKeep us updated on how you handle this little kid. I'm curious as to the outcome. I tend to think that kids these days have this sense of entitlement encouraged by their parents. I wouldn't be at all surprised if his dad knows about this and finds nothing wrong with it. The kid, however, is being sneaky, so maybe he does seem to have a sense of "this is wrong". Or maybe it is just manipulation of his peers/intimidation. Hmmm....
Great prayer. Definitely let the parents know what's going on. The kid is probably just trying to make you nervous with the "my dad's a lawyer thing" and if you talk to the parents, there's a good chance that the parents will get the kid straighten up.
